As for anything tho, it depends what you want
$1k -> $5k would be ballpark figures

Hey all,
couple of quick questions as im looking at getting myself a later model ute
ute in question is 1998 3rzfe 2wd hilux done 280 odd km, and has fried a valve
How much would it cost to fully rebuild the motor? this is only parts, as ill do the work myself. so new rings, bearings, hone etc etc
also, my yn57 has a lsd and supra discs, does anyone know if i could take the whole thing out and put it in the rzn149 or?
thanks guys
Blake

as a ballpark, main bearings are about $100-$120, rods are $80-$100, Full gasket kits are anywhere from $300-$600. Valves are generally $20 each. Rings should be around $100
4 Cylinder head surface grind about $60. Bottle brush hone $50. Acid dip and clean about $100.
It all adds up.
These are just ballpark figures however, Most likely be cheaper if you know someone!
There are cheap import (chinese copy) motors available, last time I checked they were around $3k
If it is only a "fried valve" why not just get the cylinder head reco'd
motor has done 217k, thanks for your input guys.Originally Posted by hosking1991

She hasnt even been run in yet beside the valve problem in the early models i have seen some of these at close to 450000kmOriginally Posted by Robbos_Toyotas
my grandpa has a 1997 hilux and he looks after it pretty well its up around 480k and its on its 2nd clutch
so i reckon a head reco and you should be sweet
Like they said...just do the head!
My son and I both have 3rz Hilux's, both with around 250,000 on them. Neither one uses oil and both start and run perfectly.
I'd be dissapointed if I can't get at least 350,000km before I have to put a spanner on them.
Remember.....they're Toyota's...not Fords

Wife thinks i'm mad (yep... she's right!)
I couldn't get more than 200,000kms out of them, though that was running on gas
i sold mine at about 260, head had never come off and still had original clutch plate.
on gas too.
i picked up a 05 3rzfe engine with 80****km on it for 2500 sent up from nsw
